Enerpac Cube Jack Enables Railway Bridge Installation Under Power Lines

As part of the modernization of the Oldenburg-Wilhelmshaven railway line to better connect the Wilhelmshaven container terminal to the national railway network, Schares GmbH was tasked with the installation of a double-track railway bridge in suburban Oldenburg.

Repositioning of a Satellite Earth Station Antenna

Repositioning of a Satellite Earth Station Antenna

After 30 years of service as a telecommunications satellite earth station, the wheel and track type antenna had moved 6mm out of its central rotation position due to wear on its pintle post bearing pads. In order to restore the position of the 250 ton antenna, it needed to be lifted and moved laterally back to center.

Jacking System Slides the Holbrook Canal into Position

Jacking System Slides the Holbrook Canal into Position

Minimizing the amount of time state highway 266 was shut off to traffic was a primary objective during the reconstruction of the bridge structure over Holbrook Canal. Utilizing an innovative Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) method Kiewit, Jacobs Engineering and the Colorado Department of Transportation developed a plan to build the replacement bridge adjacent to the existing bridge. The new bridge was initially used as a detour while the deficient bridge was demolished. Once demolished, the new bridge was then closed to traffic and needed to be slid into the position of the original bridge.

Lifting and Lowering Massive Conveyor Sections

To lift and lower into place large conveyor sections for more efficient installation procedures. Mammoet, a leading heavy lifting and multimodal transport solutions specialist needed to install 98 large conveyor sections as part of Rio Tinto's Western Turner Syncline Project, at their open pit mine 20km northwest of Tom Price, in the outback of Western Australia.

Assembling and Transporting Electric Transformers with a Hydraulic Gantry

Assembling and Transporting Electric Transformers with a Hydraulic Gantry

Tadeo Czerweny, a global leader in the electric power transformation market, based in Argentina, was seeking a solution after deciding to expand their manufacturing capacity and build higher-capacity electric transformers. The immediate need was to vertically lift a heavy platform structure used to assemble electric transformer cores and transport the large electric transformers within their plant. The maximum loads to be moved were 250 to 300 metric tons with a total height of 11 meters.

Stud Removal on a Stacker Reclaimer with Hydraulic Tensioners

Stud Removal on a Stacker Reclaimer with Hydraulic Tensioners

Removing the 3 meter long studs on the bucket wheel drive output of a Sandvik stacker reclaimer is a difficult and lengthy operation. Operating conditions corroded the studs and the confined location of the stud does not allow access with traditional removal equipment. Previous operations required more than 10 hours to remove each stud and used up to 120 tons of force to push and pull a total of 16 studs.
